Administrative / biographical background

The Copyright Tribunal was established in 1989, under the terms of the Copyright, Designs, and Patents Act 1988. Its main function is to decide, where the parties cannot agree between themselves, the terms and conditions of licences offered by or licensing schemes operated by collective licensing bodies in the copyright and related rights area.

The Tribunal consists of a Chairman and two deputy Chairmen who are appointed by the Lord Chancellor after consultation with the Scottish Minister, and not less than two, but no more than eight ordinary members appointed by the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry. The Tribunal is administered by a Secretary, who is a civil servant working in the Intellectual Property Office (the operating name of The Patent Office since April 2007).
